NOAA-EPP LMRCSC Undergraduate Graduate<\/strong>
B.S., Marine & Environmental Science
<\/em>Hampton University<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nefertiti Smith was an undergraduate student at Hampton University studying marine and environmental science. She was interested in the function and structure in the ocean along with the environmental impacts humans have on the ocean. Her research experience included understanding how morbillivirus have affected bottlenose dolphins over the past 25 years, as well as studying how different methods of assessing herbivory in coral reef ecosystems may affect results and investigated the use of microRNA’s to study the environmental impact on marine organisms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ms. Smith has graduated and is pursuing her PhD at the UC Irvine investigating the impacts of suspended sediments impact marine life. She is currently funded by the UC-HBCU program, and she recently received the Aquarium of the Pacific fellowship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
